This week on Good One, host Jesse David Fox welcomes Mike Birbiglia back to the podcast. Mike walks Jesse through the joke at the climax of his most recent Netflix special, The Old Man and the Pool. The two also discuss making Good One: A Show About Jokes, the Peacock documentary special adaptation of this podcast, of which Mike was the subject of.
